Abstract:
A group of distal metapodial bones of cattle had been laid, inverted, as part of a post-medieval floor at King John's House, Romsey. There seems to have been some selection of the material by age and sex: nearly all the bones were fused, and probable male bones were found in good numbers. Many of the animals represented had been larger than the medieval and 16th century animals from Southampton. A few bones showed damage on the articular surfaces or in the intercondylar space. Many showed a consistent pattern of rough cutting across the shaft in preparation for their use in the floor, which seems to have been laid to provide a good working surface and not for decorative effect.
